Used 2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class for Sale

The E350 is a great quality car as you'd expect from Mercedes, but it's not the "drivers" car that you'd get from a 5 series. The interior trim is well done with quality finishes, and the interior cabin is quiet. The steering is numb with very little feedback. The worst aspect of the car is the lag time from throttle to response. If I didn't know any better, I'd say this car was turbocharged. The ride is comfortable, as is expected for Mercedes. Plenty of room in the back seat and trunk.

I've owned this vehicle for almost 10 years (since August 2008) and I couldn't be any happier with the reliability, performance, and prestigious looks. Over the years I've owned several vehicles, and this Mercedes has been the longest I ever held to one car. With more than 120,000 miles driven so far, a single synthetic engine oil change every 13,000 miles as per the manufacturer's recommendations, I could see the precise German engineering in action. This brand, being the very first in the auto industry, is obviously envied by all the other manufacturers worldwide. If there is any drawbacks, I would mention the slightly higher engine noise during idle operation, compared with other luxury vehicles, with the front windows lowered down. Acceleration and ease of switching from automatic to stick shift couldn't be easier, compared with any other vehicle that offers that feature. The lumbar support for the driver and passenger seats are really outstanding. The exterior color black is in my opinion the best suited for this model, and I would choose it again if I ever decided to trade this vehicle for a newer model.

This is a great car for a family as well as someone who loves to drive. As a wagon it has a large cargo space that can be expanded by fully collapsing the split back seats. The rear cargo area also contains third-row seating with seat belts: a great space for kids. The mechanics are wonderful as well!
